Chapter 8: Q. 9.51 (page 370)

The P-value for a hypothesis test is 0.06. For each of the following significance levels, decide whether the null hypothesis should be rejected.

a. 伪=0.05

b. 伪=0.10

c.伪=0.06

Short Answer

Expert verified

For given value of P=0.06, null hypothesis should be as follows :-

(a) 伪=0.05:- Not rejected

(b) 伪=0.10:- Rejected

(c) 伪=0.06:- Rejected

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information

Value of伪=0.05

02

Part (a) Step 2. Explanation

Here null hypothesis should not be rejected because P=0.06>伪=0.05

03

Part (b) Step 1. Given information

Value of伪=0.10

04

Part (b) Step 2. Explanation

Here null hypothesis should be rejected becauseP=0.06<伪=0.10

05

Part (c) Step 1. Given information

Value of伪=0.06

06

Part (c) Step 2. Explanation

Here null hypothesis should be rejected becauseP=0.06=伪.

The Ericsson method is one of several methods claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl. In a clinical trial, results could be analysed with a formal hypothesis test with the alternative hypothesis of p>0.5, which corresponds to the claim that the method increases the likelihood of having a girl, so that the proportion of girls is greater than 0.5. If you have an interest in establishing the success of the method, which of the following P-values would you prefer: 0.999, 0.5, 0.95, 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001? Why?

Interpreting Power Chantix (varenicline) tablets are used as an aid to help people stop smoking. In a clinical trial, 129 subjects were treated with Chantix twice a day for 12 weeks, and 16 subjects experienced abdominal pain (based on data from Pfizer, Inc.). If someone claims that more than 8% of Chantix users experience abdominal pain, that claim is supported with a hypothesis test conducted with a 0.05 significance level. Using 0.18 as an alternative value of p, the power of the test is 0.96. Interpret this value of the power of the test.
